Partial
1 Corinthians 13:9-10
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part,
10 but when what is perfect comes, the partial will be set aside.
Partial.
To be part of the future and
not being able to forget the past.
Driven by mind's own illusions like
that one has a chance to last.
Words on words and lay a foundation
but what to build on words alone?
Just like quicksand in creation that
won't support the lightest clone.
The human tongue is the representation
for what will be in future near.
Lost in its own degradation
shouting loud: "Nothing to fear".
Fooling self and others with it
never learned from the past.
Future lost: "Just forget it"
even today is made of gas.
Feather light with not much substance
will keep you warm when aflame.
But not lighted in a for instance
brings quick death ... what a shame.
First the words … then some deeds
kind of creepy ... fallen aside.
Shed the deeds … just words in need
speak reality … but seldom right.
